Jean-Pierre Nimbona, also referred to as Kidum, is a Nairobi-based musician. He was named Best Male Artist of East Africa at the 2012 Kora Awards.[1] He was named as an Ambassador for Peace, a position that helps to foster hope and reconciliation in East Africa. Once in Kenya, it took Kidum 4 years to start writing his own songs. In 1999, Kidum recorded "Yaramenje", his first song. As quoted in an interview with Jim Lenskold and published in the American Media Wire Service: "I decided to go to a small studio, in a container actually...". The song went on to capture the attention of then president Daniel arap Moi, who recognised its potential to unite Burundi.

Having gain millions of fans overtime, Kidum has become one of the most sought after artists in East Africa and across the continent . His ingenius style of creating music sets him apart from the competition.

Kidum is expected to release his new studio album on the 28th of August in Nairobi, Kenya which will then later be available for streaming globally.
